Unofficial Apolyton Predicts

[KrazyHorse]

Considering the "accuracy" of the polls, I'm not sure we would learn anything useful by comparing past head to head polling of Sanders vs. Trump.

I would gamble that a differences in differences approach - comparing such a head to head vs the hillary head to head would be meaningful

Finished in June, when Hillary had +2, Sanders had +10.

At Hillary's peak in March she had +11, Sanders had +17.

For the greatest difference, beginning of May, Trump was leading Hillary by 0.2, Sanders was ahead by 13 vs Trump.

Dec 15 looks like the last month she was polling better than Sanders vs Trump, he had about 6 months of better polling.

Meaningful, but only partially. National polls aren't as important as the demographic/geographic breakdown.

Two million extra votes in California wouldn't have made much difference

Looks like the election may not be over yet:

Computer scientists have found a pattern that could indicate that electronic voting machines have been hacked/manipulated in order to give Trump an advantage.

In at least 3 states (Winsconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania) they found that in counties that used electronic voting machines, Hillary Clinton got significantrly less votes than one could expect from the surrounding counties (that didn't use electronic voting machines)

They advise Clinton to demand a recount

That reminds me of Diebold and the Bush jr. elections

She already conceded, and in a week, the results will be certified, it's over, Proteus.

Also, I know you're not a native speaker, but it's significantly FEWER.

That's the interesting question ...
does the concession still count, if (after the "losing candidate" conceded) you find indications for a major voting fraud that may significantly alter the results

[giblets]

Pretty sure the concession is just a formality and has no legal significance. There's no mention of it in the Constitution.

Also, I know you're not a native speaker, but it's significantly FEWER.

And both are completely understandable to any native English speaker, and both used interchangably by huge numbers of native English speakers. Since when did we pick foreign posters up on extremely minor grammar errors?

It's ben. He's wrong so frequently he was trying to look right for once, but of course came off looking like a douche. It's almost a superpower.
